In the last blog post I talked about how different body parts can affect each other because they are all inter-related.
I perhaps gave too many structural examples rather than biochemical, hormonal, neurological etc examples, but I hope that article gave you an idea of how much all parts of the body rely on other parts and vice versa.
In this article I’ll briefly start looking into how the physical body reflects into the emotional, mental and spiritual realms too.
It seems from the amount of information I have come across over the years that is actually quite a common view-point in ancient arts – to relate the physical and spiritual to each other.
A lot of people who have had sessions with me will have been exposed to the way I like to use physical issues to gain information on mental, emotional and spiritual states. And also the other way around – gaining knowledge of issues or potential issues in the physical body gleaned from spiritual issues for example.

Your beliefs thoughts and emotions have a big impact on the physical body
A lot of the people who read this will have by now come across a lot of examples of this. It is likely that is why you have an interest in healing and thus why you were drawn to my work.
There are many stories of how healing has cured or at least partially helped with the healing of physical issues. If you have been following my “Learn Energy Healing” series of videos on YouTube you will see that how you feel, think and believe has a huge impact on how effective your healing is.
One of the most well-known stories in the alternative world is of Joe Dispenza’s recovery after breaking his back at 23 years old. Several of his thoracic vertebrae and one of his lumbar vertebrae were broken after colliding with a truck during a triathlon race he was taking part in.
He was told that the fractures were so severe that multiple shards of bone had gone into his spinal cord and that if he wouldn’t have surgery to take those out, that he would be paralyzed soon and even after surgery to remove them, he would still likely be somewhat paralysed.
He refused the surgery to the surprise of the surgeons. He believed that the body has an innate intelligence and that by directing that intelligence he could help the body have a full recovery.
He laid face-down, for 9 and a half weeks feeling into the pain and meditating on his broken back. After those weeks he was able to walk again despite the surgeons warning that he would be paralysed if nothing was done.
Joe Dispenza describes in some of his interviews in more detail what he did. He asked his body to heal itself. Crucially he had to maintain focus with his thoughts as initially his thoughts kept jumping around to different subjects, much like most people experience when they meditate. He tried to imagine the broken part of the spine as if it was already healed, both looking perfect and also feeling perfect.
He said the most noticeable shifts happened when he started to be able to picture a perfect spine from multiple angles and maintain that image for longer periods without other intrusive thoughts coming in. He said that once he could get that perfect spine image to look as detailed as in the anatomy books and maintain it clearly whilst being able to rotate and zoom in and out of that image without intrusive thoughts, that that was when he started to notice he could start to move his legs. Soon after maintaining that for several weeks he was able to make a full recovery and get full movement and functionality back to his body.
I do recommend you take a look at his books, videos and maybe attend his courses as he is a very inspirational person. Joe is not the only person to have managed to miraculously heal his body like this as there are many stories. Bruce Frantzis, a famous Qigong practitioner likewise healed his spine using different methods to get energy into his spine.
As a side note, the technique Joe used is what I use most when people come to me to heal physical complaints. The moment I am able to hold the image like Joe did for his spine, of the effected part and be able to feel into that body part too, is when most of the benefits are felt by my clients.
Hopefully this story and many other you may come across highlight how intimately the mind, emotions and spiritual realms affect the body.

The body also affects the spiritual
Just as much as the mind, emotions and spirit affect the body, the same can be said the other way around. I have a lot of examples of this over the years of my work.
One of the most common examples I come across is when people come to me complaining of astral/energetic/spiritual parasites.
When I tune into the physical body of people with these issues, in virtually all cases, they have some sort of issue with parasites, gut bacteria and/or fungi.
People’s diets these days are generally terrible. What is often considered “normal” or often even “healthy” to eat by most people in the West I find to be, in my opinion, very unhealthy.
It’s too long a subject to go into here but let’s just say that people are putting rubbish into their bodies and the result is creating favourable environments for bacterial imbalances, yeast and fungus overgrowths and even larger parasites such as worms and flukes. Diagnoses for gut related issues are going up and up every year and most simply aren’t paying attention to what exactly they are putting in their mouths!
When working on the physical side of things and thus balancing their gut bacteria, reducing yeast/fungus growths and eliminating larger parasites (which can take time!), the astral/spiritual parasites are often reduced or completely cleared without doing any direct energy healing work.
The functions of each body part gives clues to what spiritual influences they have
As an ex-biochemist and especially as an ex-osteopath, I still maintain quite a lot of information on how the physical body works. What is interesting to me is how those functions seem to relate to specific types of emotion, thought, astral experiences and beliefs.
I have found for example that those who have experiences, issues and beliefs of defending or protecting themselves from a spiritual/astral threat, that they often have a lot of stuck or discordant energies in their spleen (among other areas too).
What does the spleen do in the physical body? It has a major role in creating and maturing immune cells that defend the body against infection, especially affecting the gut via the lymphatic system that transports those immune cells.
So in this example you can see how the physical function of the spleen is related to defense/protection and people who have issues here often have more experiences of not being able to defend themselves in challenges with other people in the physical world and/or challenges in the spiritual world. Often such people avoid conflicts too.
Coincidence? I think not. Each body part and its function in my years of healing seem to be reflective of people’s experiences. Some are harder to understand than the example above and of course there are multiple organs/body parts to consider as well as the spiritual experiences being very complex too but there is a definite correlation.
Multiple sources agree
I’m not the only one who thinks this way. There have been multiple authors over the last few decades who have written books on this subject and giving advice on what mental/emotional shift you can make to create more ease with a physical issue/disease and vice versa.
Those who have studied the meridians of the body as described in the East will have an understanding of how organs are related to how energies flow, in turn affecting the mind, body and spirit. Similar views are see in all sorts of shamanic practices from ancient times.
In modern times, Louise Hay’s book “Heal Your Body” is the most common book people seem to come across. I personally prefer the descriptions in other books but many of my clients have found help reading this book.
If you can find a copy, I prefer Daniel R. Condron’s book “Permanent Healing”. This contains descriptions that are generally closer to the way I like to think. It is also a bigger book than Louise Hay’s, containing more body parts and diseases to look through. It also has a lovely description of quantum mechanics of healing and a good introduction going into detail about the concepts I have discussed here and in other articles I have written.
There are larger books out there that I can’t remember the titles of but used to own, that go into even more detail. While they are very interesting, sometimes going into too much specificity means that you often loose the bigger picture overriding your particular issues…

Building a broader picture
As mentioned in the last article, try not to loose sight of the overall picture with yourself.
Individual body parts and their related mental/emotional/spiritual significances are very useful in helping you understand your situation, but we can often go into too much detail sorting out that one thing, when working on looking at the larger issue would actually be quicker at solving many things in one go.
For example, if you realise that all your aura issues, physical issues, relationship issues etc are a reflection of how much you are willing to be the person you truly wish to be and thus how much you truly love yourself and others, then paying attention to doing things that are loving of you and others would clear up a lot of issues more quickly than trying to focus on all the little aura inconsistencies or physical issues individually.
Individual body parts coming up in future articles…
I hope this has helped create a little bit more understanding of the reflection of the physical and beyond.
Seeing as I often have a different way of looking at body parts and their related non-physical effects than the aforementioned books, I will being writing my views on each organ over the coming months. The major organs at least.
I will be relating the physical function to the sorts of thoughts, emotions spiritual experiences and beliefs more than the above books. This should give you some other ways at looking at whatever current issue you may be going through.
You might prefer my description, Louise Hay’s, Daniel Condron’s or some other author’s description of each part. Or you might find reading from multiple sources gives a bigger picture.
Either way, everyone finds certain descriptions more understandable or useful than others, so like I’ve said many times, take what’s useful and discard the rest.
